Best Gifts for Kids of 2024

October 8, 2024 · In: Gift Guides

We’re back today with another gift guide! Today we are chatting about gifts for kids. Now I do not have any children of my own, but I do have small nephews I buy for. When I buy for them I have a few rules; nothing to do with a screen, something that will interest them longer than a few weeks/months, nothing that is objectively annoying (noisy/overstimulating lights/etc). I also love gifting them experiences or things that encourage imaginative play.

Let’s take a look at some of the best gift ideas for kids for 2024.

Indoor Toddler Slide

Now some parents may not *love* this. However, I have two nephews that act like every day is a WWE smackdown. I think this would be so fun specifically for kids who have a Nugget at home (IYKYK). It’s a great way to get energy out indoors during the long winters.

Anywhere Lounger

I have mentioned the Anywhere Chair in the past, which I have gotten both of our nephews previously. They absolutely love them and the one has used his for 5 years now! I decided to share this one as I think it may appeal more to kids a bit older.

LEGO Classic Set

LEGO will never go out of style! While there are so many amazing sets out there – I think it’s great to have a box of LEGOs that encourages free play. I had one of these boxes as a kid and the hours I spent playing were endless! Just watch your feet in the play space 😉

Kanoodle Puzzle Game

This game is so fun (for kids an adults). I purchased this for myself a while ago, but my 6-year-old nephew loves it too! It’s definitely better for kids at least over 6, in my opinion. I also love that you can easily take this on the go.

Couch Swag Play Panels

This is another fun gift idea for the kids who have Nugget couches at home! There are tons of different designs that are perfect for a variety of interests. My nephews are always asking us to make new Nugget designs for them so this would certainly come in handy!

Beginner Sewing Machine Kit

When I was little I had a mini sewing machine like this and I absolutely loved it! I really like that this includes some fabric, and guide book, and everything else you may need. This is so fun for an older creative kid who wants to learn a life skill.

Art Easel

An art easel is a gift that kids will use for years! So many possibilities for play, learning, and beyond. I especially love that this one is also magnetic and has a sport for a paper roll.

Botley the Coding Robot

I love that there are so many coding toys and games for kids out there! My husband is a software engineer, so this is something that I’ve realized is important to kids to learn about. Plus this is a great price, in my opinion. And I am sure it would provide hours of entertainment.

Ticket to Ride First Journey

My husband and I love the game Ticket to Ride! It is definitely a complex game, so it’s awesome they have one geared toward kids as well. I personally love a good board game and always have. It’s something that will stay in your home for years and encourage family bonding.

Pinball Machine Maker

I think this is such a cool gift idea and has a lot of replay-ability (if that’s a word). This set allows kids to experiment and switch up their very own pinball machine! I love that this would also work for a pretty large age group.

I hope you all enjoyed this list of unique gifts for kids! It can be hard shopping for kids that aren’t your own, so hopefully this can get your wheels turning. Be sure to sign up for my email list to notified the next time I post. And feel free to check out previous gift guides here for more inspiration.

Cheers!

Summer is calling my name this week🐚☀️ But Summer is calling my name this week🐚☀️

But with overcast skies, weather in the 60’s, and no vacations planned until the end of August - it’s hard to pick up the call😅

Let me know what your summer plans are👙

While we didn’t have the best beach weather last While we didn’t have the best beach weather last weekend, we still managed to soak up some sun☀️🌊

The best part of any beach trip is showering after a long day in the water and throwing on your favorite sun dress with your fresh tan🤍 I am obsessed with this new one I snagged for only $35 - plus the perfect purse to match🐚

Genuinely if I have $1 for every time I’ve been told I “don’t belong in Western PA” - I’d have enough money to move to the southern city of my choosing😂 But seriously - I’ve gotten these comments since I was in middle school! 

I’ve heard it said PA is 10 years behind on fashion👀 I can confirm people don’t understand me or my Lorna Murray hat I bought back in 2022👒

Getting vulnerable for a second: I love creating content and blogging but photographing myself lately, especially on this trip, has been rough for my self-esteem. While curating this post I was second guessing even posting these pictures because I didn’t like the way my body looked. Over the past month I’ve been on a regimen of medications that have thrown my body through a loop have had me not feeling myself. Even a “healthy” diet and daily exercise can’t reverse the side effects I’m experiencing and it’s been hard for me to reconcile that. In this process I’ve been reminding myself I don’t look at others around me or people I follow online and analyze their bodies or looks. 

So this is your reminder that we’re overthinking ourselves more than others are thinking about us. And it’s easier said than done, but give yourself grace through all seasons of life🤍
